in the combined wars in iraq and afghanistan, nearly 6600 americans have been killed. almost 50,000 wounded. while all life is sacred, those figures are nothing like the vietnam war. however, i believe most historians will look back on the iraq war as being a mistake. we could have brought saddam to his knees by blockading his country. we didn't have to invade it. the weapons of mass destruction deal through all calibrations out. but we did not need iraq in order to win the war on terror. afghanistan is another matter. we had to remove the taliban and we did. the problem is that afghan society is largely corrupt and the usa has not been able to neutralize that corruption. so we're caught in a country that will not cooperate in helping itself become a free state. money and tribal conflicts rule in afghanistan. that has hurt america badly. again, we had to fight the war. president obama has done a good job in neutralizing al-qaeda, his killer drone strategy decimated that group. president bush did a good job in hammering al-qaeda after 9-11. his strategy of isolating and

al-qaeda in the arabian peninsula, al-qaeda in iraq examine so on. that does make it more difficult for our intelligence agencies to track them down because there are fewer leads. it's just harder to penetrate. i think what that emphasizes is we need an assessment. did we perhaps let our guard down again? do we need more intelligence resources in the region and elsewhere in the world? >> arthel: then the other question is, the newly formed government there, are they capable of protecting u.s. diplomatic interests? >> that is a very serious that the writ of the government does not run country wide. their ability to try examine keep order and protect -- and keep order and protect foreign diplomats is open to question. one of the things we've been worried about since the overthrow of gadhafi is that the libyan state itself might fracture and you would end up with a situation in somalia where there is no effective state control. there is a series of enclaves in which terrorists could take root. soy think that's a very serious situation and perhaps elsewh

iraq sending militias to support syria president. iran flying supplies to assad and not stopping the flights and secretary of state hillary clinton's not so successful trip to beijing. when's become of american foreign policy? have we lost our clout and power? can we get it back? jeff schmitt is joining us. jeff, that's the basic question, it does seem as though as the world becomes more interconnected and perhaps more economically powerful, the u.s. seems to be losing its influence when it comes to crises. is that a correct read or not? >> no, i think it is a correct read. there's no question we have lost some of the ability to shape global affairs compared to ten years ago. the important question is why and i think the rise of china and alternative power centers is certainly one explanation. but, you know, the failure of our economy to perform over the past ten years is probably even a greater indicator. we consistently underestimate the direct linkage between our economy and the ability to shape affairs abroad. you know, foreign c

do you know how much has been spent during the afghan and iraq war? >> a considerable amount of money but let me ask you this, mr. president. if nearly 3,000 iranians had been murdered in the way that americans were on 9/11, in tehran, how would you have reacted to the country that you believed had done that? >> translator: so you are saying that the country of afghanistan was at fault? was responsible? so you're seeing the responsible party as a whole nation? >> i think it is inarguable that al qaeda and osama bin laden's men who worked for him were training in afghanistan so afghanistan was certainly knowingly harboring terrorists who were training to commit atrocities. >> translator: i believe that you can under no circumstances justify the condemnation and the attack upon a country in order to reach a single terrorist group, and i do believe that no matter how long you and i or other people speak, this is unexplainable. allow me to ask you. do you believe that the various administrations of the united states were successful in eradicating terroris

they tried to get bill clinton to start the iraq war. they wanted george bush to start the war before 9/11 happened. then when 9/11 happened, they said we have to go now, don't we? the project for a new american century really existed and the people who ran it did not get run out of washington and forced into a line of work they would be better suited for like for example, coloring. they are briefing the republican vice presidential nominee on what to do about foreign policy. in 2012. the republican side never retired the g.w. bush policy team. no need to come up with a new idea or two. they don't seem to really care about foreign policy in terms of the mitt romney campaign. they just don't want to be asked about it. because the republican party is essentially forfeited on this issue, because on this issue there are not two plausible sides fighting it out in the election, there's the democrats and sort of a right wing peanut gallery that pops up. foreign policy and the wars are being handled in our political system differently than any o
